The Doorknob Episode

hold onto your facial tissues, caleb starts off the show with a depressing story. but don’t fret, rafe gets all excited about seeing the game grumps live (spoiler: it was amazing). she also gives her own opinions on chicago food and makes fun of windows 10. caleb talks food and then he and rafe debate the pronunciation of turmeric. rafe has decided to be festive and actually participate at work and caleb confuses everything by explaining voting. they talk weird pizza habits and discover that yes, rafe is a fat girl. then caleb gets disgusting talking about cheese and doorknobs. after rafe is sufficiently grossed out, they talk about the alan rickman movie of the week: quigley down under. caleb goes full snobby know-it-all with analyzing the movie. but hot damn, tom selleck. caleb dd down song and rafe did under songs. caleb gets angry at rafe again for not watching trailers, and she offers up a new (yaoi) anime to watch. next week, they’ll be watching alan rickman in truly madly deeply and doing songs with prominent adverbs in the title. don’t forget to like rafe hates caleb on facebook and follow @rafehatescaleb on twitter to stay in the loop with all their shenanigans.
